• Modify variables

  • The sys tenant can directly modify the value of global system variables.

  • MySQL user tenants must have the SUPER or ALTER SYSTEM privilege to modify the value of global system variables.

  • Oracle user tenants must have the ALTER SYSTEM privilege to modify the value of global system variables.
